Zip Rzeppa, Executive Director, Mater Media

Nate Anton is an inexhaustible value creator. As a collaborator, sounding board or project lead, Nate is at the top of my list to work with. His perspective and insights launch themselves from the countless volumes, books, journals and pages he devours with enthusiasm, waiting only to apply their lessons to the opportunity at hand.

Craig S. Scheiderer, Marketing Director, Off Broadway Shoes

Nate is a visionary with a pioneer spirit. To say that Nate is creative is an understatement, he thinks “bigger” than the people around him.
Most importantly, Nate is ethical. He pushes himself to create change for the common good and will not work toward something without a deep conviction to the overall purpose.

SciXchange

University of Missouri

Science Reporter - March 2014 – April 2014

SciXchange shed light on the complex nature of accurately reporting scientific research. I underwent a two-fold experiment with a team of journalists and scientists, and we devised the following hypothesis before commencing: If journalists are embedded in the scientific lab, they will be able to communicate the scientific research more clearly to the general public.

Overall, the experiment confirmed our hypothesis. We shared our research through a comprehensive poster presenting our findings along with future recommendations during Life Sciences Week at the University of Missouri.

‘Don’t give up’

"I know why I got cancer.
I’ve never asked why.
I always knew why. ...
I remember thinking as a child:
I hope no one in my family ever gets cancer.
But if someone has to get it, I’m the strong one.
I can handle it."

The St. Louis Fire Department urges the community to change smoke alarm batteries during their annual "Change Your Clock Change Your Battery" program. Fire Chief Dennis Jenkerson says smoke alarms have changed firefighting.
"That’s why we are so forward with them," he said. "Everyday. We’ll come out morning, noon or night. It’s 2 o’clock in the morning, and your smoke detector is not working? We’ll knock on your door and put a new one in."

Two teams of three journalists had an opportunity to be embedded in a science lab. The experiment was two-fold — the journalists worked with transgenic organisms in the lab while being part of the experiment itself.

LET’S TALK: The underreporting of rape and sexual assault at MU

My semester-long project on the community outreach team focused on strategically identifying audiences who most need specific content the Missourian publishes. An example of the most involved story I worked on dealt with the underreporting of sexual assault on college campuses.

Almeta Crayton shared her worldview: ‘It’s about the children’

In the summer of 2015, I sat in an old chair on a front yard in an unfamiliar neighborhood. I was in the heart of Columbia’s First Ward, the place Almeta Crayton called home, and I was there to interview Ms. Almeta.
What began as a simple story for a class project ended up providing a life lesson. But then again, that’s how Ms. Almeta lived her life — leading by example and going above and beyond.
She understood the importance of putting a face to issues that might not always be the easiest to talk about. During our conversation, she shared her worldview about things such as being a positive example for kids, the importance of having a purpose in life and why community connections matter.
Here, I share clips from our June conversations, with the hope that others can learn from them as well.
